Mamitas

A teenager lives in Echo Park. He grew up in that Los Angeles neighbourhood. He has lost his mother. Nobody at home talks about it. At school he is known for answering back. His circle of friends is settled. Then he meets a girl. She is not the sort his friends approve of. He likes her anyway. That sets him apart from the people around him. The girl has a world of her own. He steps into it. He begins to be able to speak about his mother. E.J. Bonilla, Joaquim de Almeida and Jennifer Esposito appear in the hundred and nine minute film, an American production Nicholas Ozeki finished in 2012.
